The SLOW warning alternates with the current depth. The SLOW warning is an
indication that the maximum ascent rate has been exceeded continuously, whereas the
ascent rate indicator shows present ascent speed.
Whenever the SLOW warning appears, you should immediately slow down or stop your
ascent until the warning disappears. You must not ascend shallower than 3 m [10 ft] with
the SLOW warning on. If you reach this depth with SLOW on, you must stop at this depth
and wait until the warning disappears.
